Welcome back.

Did you guys use Gold, Silver, Bronze scoring?r standard IPMS scoring?

"Noel, the one hour early access is what I was trying to get at. Unfortunately, the norm here has been all have access from the start so to now put a limit on the first hour would be the restriction of their customer base that you so correctly said they'd resent. It is a Gordian knot for sure and we don't currently have our Alexander in position to solve this particular problem. " It would be interesting to see how much push back we'd get from Vendors if the first hour was dedicated to members. How many general admissions do we get in the first hour? That is probably one statistic we can't get.

Let me determine how big to go, then I will PM you.

Can I just get the walls without the base? I am building this for a 1/72 C-130, and need a wider back.

Nice build, and a cool history lesson.

I,ve stopped flying altogether. I'll bring one or two to Madison, and my son will bring some. I'd be concerned with TSA breaking them during an "inspection". Two days to Madison. 2-3 to Virginia.

Your selling these? ebay?
-
Still an apples to oranges comparison. Distances is one of the main drivers for our attendance. Texas end to end is a longer drive than someone going to Telford has. Madison will be a hard two-day drive for me, longer for Virginia. We started saving for the trip; but I am in a position where I can shift money, a position not everyone is in.

I suggested a members only FB page during the e-board meeting in San Marcos. The e-board shot it down (it's in minutes from a quarterly meeting). I'm active in two local clubs, I'll volunteer to Judge at Nats, but that's about it. I'm going to start signing up for seminars and tours, something I haven't done in the past.

OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT DAVID LOCKHART

As editor, he has the right to do what he did. As Members, we have the right to criticize him. -
Welcome

Is there a master list of aircraft entries that members can see?
-
I belong to a handful of Military Groups on FakeBook. Some groups have a public page and a second members only page, while the other groups are members only. That could eliminate the non-member screams. IPMS-USA also needs to add moderators to the page. My understanding is we have a single admin/moderator for the page. That's too much for a single person (FWIW, I am a mod on two FB pages). Going back to the current debate. I am going to Madison, and will volunteer to Judge. I doubt I will volunteer for other areas as I want to enjoy the convention, and volunteering every day can be a killjoy.

Do you have any from the Omaha convention? -
Nice, and welcome.

Moving/touching models.
BWScholten replied to Bradley25mm's topic in About the IPMS/USA National Convention
The no camera rule is too keep judges from blowing up their view of the models in order to spot minuscule issues. Issue small pen lights if lighting is poor.
